Acoustic insulation solutions for traditional construction
Effective, high-performance solutions designed to improve acoustic comfort in floors and walls in traditional buildings, from new-build developments to refurbishment projects.
Traditional construction includes established building systems such as brick-concrete slabs, reinforced concrete floors and masonry walls. Effective acoustic design helps reduce noise transmission through these structures and improve indoor acoustic comfort.
Isolgomma offers dedicated solutions for different building elements, designed to deliver high acoustic performance that lasts over time.
Why acoustic insulation is essential in traditional construction
Floor structures, walls and floor coverings can provide routes for noise transmission between adjacent rooms or rooms on different floors.
Effective acoustic design helps reduce the transmission of airborne and impact noise, improving acoustic comfort and the quality of indoor spaces.
Integrating resilient materials and acoustic insulation products into building assemblies improves their acoustic performance, meeting the requirements of residential buildings, hotels, offices, public buildings and commercial spaces.

Acoustic insulation solutions for floor structures in traditional construction
Our acoustic insulation solutions for traditional floor structures are designed to reduce impact noise transmission through under-screed systems developed for different construction methods and performance requirements.
Installing a resilient layer between the structural floor and the screed creates a floating screed system that decouples the flooring from the load-bearing structure, helping reduce vibration transmission. Isolgomma offers impact sound insulation mats and panels suitable for brick-concrete and reinforced concrete floors, including applications with limited build-up thickness, underfloor heating systems or heavy loads.
Concrete slab
When to choose it
Ideal for new-build projects with reinforced concrete floors requiring effective impact sound insulation. A resilient underlay beneath the floating screed helps limit vibration transmission and improve acoustic comfort in residential and commercial environments.

Concrete slab for high loads
When to choose it
Designed for commercial and multi-purpose buildings where acoustic insulation must be combined with resistance to heavy static and dynamic loads. High-load resilient underlays help reduce impact noise while meeting the mechanical requirements of the floor system.

Reinforced concrete slab with a thin screed
When to choose it
Ideal for refurbishment projects where floor build-up height must be kept to a minimum. A thin floating screed combined with a resilient underlay helps reduce impact noise while preserving existing floor levels and usable room height.

Acoustic insulation solutions for walls
Isolgomma acoustic insulation solutions for walls help reduce airborne noise transmission and improve acoustic comfort between adjacent rooms. They can be adapted to different masonry structures and project-specific performance requirements.
In double-leaf walls, installing acoustic insulation and sound-absorbing materials within the cavity enhances the overall acoustic performance of the wall system. Our solutions are suitable for different types of masonry, including clay brick, concrete and lightweight concrete blocks.
Cement block double wall
When to choose it
This solution is designed for double-leaf walls built using concrete, lightweight concrete or clay blocks. The two separate leaves, together with insulating and sound-absorbing material in the cavity, improve acoustic insulation and thermal comfort.

Brick double wall
When to choose it
Double-leaf clay brick walls are a traditional solution for achieving high levels of acoustic insulation. Their mass, together with insulating material installed in the cavity, creates a mass–spring–mass system that improves acoustic performance and reduces airborne noise transmission.
